The GamingLives team sits down to ponder those games that they feel they need to play (or have been told to by pushy "You MUST play..." friends) before they run out of save slots and end up in the big decommissioned hard drive in the sky.
"'Where do we come from? Why are we here? Where do we go when we die?'… three questions to which Stephen Hawking probably knows the answers, but refuses to publish because he’s sick of being mocked by the masses for sounding like a smug Speak & Spell. Unless you happen to be remarkably good at playing Battleship, or have unlimited credit with the Hyperion Corporation, there isn’t much you can do to avoid death, but there are still steps to be taken to ensure that sucking in your final radiation-filled breath (I’m speculating, don’t worry) won’t go hand in hand with regret over missed opportunities."

Gary Green said: You’ll be forgiven if you haven’t heard of the Ar Tonelico trilogy. The previous two games arrived so late in the PS2’s life-cycle that they simply went unnoticed. While most were tinkering with their shiny new PS3s, Ar Tonelico: Melody of Elemia and Ar Tonelico II: Melody of Metafalica were being ‘returned to sender’ by your local Game stores. Luckily, you won’t need to have played them to understand and appreciate this third and final chapter, Qoga (pronounced k-yoga) tells the story of a racial war between humans and Reyvateils, a breed of biologically produced female cyborgs capable of reproduction, while still having a digital mind.
Oh my god. I kinda wish this would get a remaster on PS5, it would be awesome. One of my favorite games on PS3.
That and 3D Dot Game Heroes. It's a shame that some stuff is stuck on PS3.
Ar Tonelico 3 is good I still prefer the first AT game. The music is solid in all the games and Akiko Shikata is a very talented singer bringing life to the game. Only annoying part is well I find is Saki I always choose Finnel or Tyria. KOEI so needs to HD remaster the franchise along with Ar Nosurge and Ciel Nosurge since it never came to North America. I would day one the Ar Toneliceo games and Ar Nosurge if they were remastered.
